ABOUT SSF

Writer/blogger person, semiprofessional teenager, pop culture junkie, and gum chewer. Her fangirl-dom (-ness? -ity?) began in the elementary school days, when she had every Pokemon merchandise and carried around a Powderpuff Girls doll when others made up imaginary friends. Nowadays, she’s into more…sophisticated stuff. Okay not too sophisticated. Whether her mad skills, like writing over the word limit or knowing everything about every Harry Potter book or fangirling at the speed of light, will come in handy…remains to be seen.

Fun Facts about SSF!

SSF’s favorite band is Australian, her favorite singer is Canadian, and favorite childhood band was British (no, not Beatles, surprisingly). Yet SSF is supposedly just Arizonian (or so the birth certificate says).

SSF once received a tweet from screenwriter Diablo Cody (Juno, Jennifer’s Body, Young Adult). On 9/20/10 to be exact. It. Was. AWESOME.

SSF has only read the first two chapters of 50 Shades of Grey. She says it’s much like being a kid allowed to watch the first two scenes of a R-rated movie - then being told to go to bed right as the gore/naughty stuff begins.

SSF does have a YA/urban fantasy series WIP, which she’s been writing since seventh grade. She can’t share all the juicy details, but the plot involves dream world monsters, mental hospitals, and lots of indie music.

SSF does hope to be an entertainment journalist one day. Maybe all this blogging and posting pictures of LOLcatz will lead to great things one day. Until then, let’s have fun, shall we?

TO COMPLETE AND UTTER STRANGERS

Tune into Some Screaming Fangirl (SSF) for blogs that look at the YA (young adult/teen) side of the book industry, with a fresh, teen perspective. Also expect tons of pop culture reviews and discussions (you know, like movies, music, TV, videogames, other books). Sometimes SSF even does both! Entertainment AND writing tips! Like a playlist for writing fight scenes or what TV show finales can teach us or the different types of best friends you see in movies.

Is there a YA topic you want to talk about? Maybe a slice of pop culture you feel like fangirling/boying out about? Leave a comment or let me know at somescreamingfangirl@gmail.com. Or just hit that follow button. I like friends.
